Week 34 Check up- she shows her face!!!

Hello all, we hope that you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. We certainly have a lot to be grateful for! We went for our 34 week check up, and Dr. Paul is please with the baby's growth. He even commented that she is going to be tall- judging by the length of her thigh bone- I guess she takes after her dad! Much to our delight, our little one showed her face today. Previously she has been shy and stayed away from the limelight, but not today. As the scan proceeded Dr. Paul moved the sensor- and there she was! We even got to see her blink and stick out her tongue. So all and all a good Doctor's visit!

So who do you think she looks like??? :-) 

32 week check-up

Greetings from Singapore! After a wonderful, albeit seemingly short trip to the US, we have been back for just over a week. We had our 32 week check-up/scan this week. The peanut is doing well, her heart rate is good and her growth is normal (She now weighs two kgs). In this scan you can see her head on the left and her back on the top of the picture. Dr. Paul is pleased with her growth, and we now will begin to see him every two weeks! It is amazing how quickly time flies. Mommy is feeling well and is very excited that she can continue to workout; in fact Dr. Paul said that it is very good for the labor process. We continue to feel so blessed by everyone's outpouring of concern and love and we are anxiously awaiting the birth of our first daughter!

Farewell New York (for now...)!

Greetings to all...we arrived safely back in Singapore yesterday morning after an amazing, yet short visit in New York City. The trip was filled with time with friends, working, and unfortunately for me, getting over a cold. I am happy to report that the cold is going away and I am feeling much better.


Monday, Tuffli worked and got time to reconnect with the New York office. That evening he had a really nice dinner at Fig and Olive with Scott, Erin was under the weather, Anand and Beth, while I stayed at the hotel and slept. Tuesday night we got to spend some time with Carrie and Jeremy, at one of our favorite upper west side eateries- City Grill. Wednesday I had some time with Kristen to hang out in the city, including getting a “spooky” manicure in time for Halloween- blue was certainly stepping outside of the box- even got some comments in the elevator of our hotel! Wednesday evening Tuffli and I had dinner with Alex at Pig Heaven- a little taste of Singapore. Our last day in New York was finally sunny, after several days of rain. I was able to walk from our hotel down to Chelsea Market and get our coveted 8 year old balsamic vinegar. After work, Tuffli and I met up with Chris and Bethany for a delicious dinner at Quality Meats. It was a quick bite before we had to head to the airport for our 11 pm flight back to Singapore.

So there is a quick run down of our few days in New York. It was great to see everyone and we are looking forward to visiting again some time soon. The next time, however we will be a family of three no longer two.
The baby is readjusting to Singapore time and is trying to figure out when I need to eat. Her kicks keep me vigilant.


Thanks to all for a wonderful journey to the states. We really feel so blessed to have each of you in our lives and are looking forward to many more times together.
